Pour ingredients over crushed ice and shake.
Strain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish with a fan of three thin slivers of green apple or float a paper-thin slice of apple on top, like the label of a Beatles record.

Some bartenders, likely those not serviced by that distributor who dumped all the DeKuyper Pucker on the market, attempted to build a drink around an infusion of apple slices in vodka and sour mix. This leads to a drink that does not resonate with our nostalgia for the candy of our youth, aside from being quite a bit of extra work; needless to say, it did not catch on. And it did nothing to stabilize a drink recipe that was variously referred to as "Granny Smith Martini", "Big Apple", "Polish Apple", "Green Apple Martini", "Pucker Martini", and other even less memorable names.
